* I am positively enthralled with Camilleri's Salvo Montalbano. Where can I find such a man?!?!?? I finished "The Shape of Water" and borrowed three more Inspector Montalbano books from the Grande Bibliotheque Nationale, two in English and one in French to see how the translation would differentiate. So far, I can say that the English one is easier ( Read more... )

reading, on the job(s), to-do, the wifely one, +nt: azzurri, +nt: russia, +footie: euro 2008

Hee, same here! I started reading Montalbano last Saturday and am now frantically going through libraries to find The Terracotta Dog. (Last resort is the bookstore, where I'll have to stand. But it's worth it!)
Which ones are the last books? I lose all sense of chronology...though two of the ones I borrowed somewhat happened to follow each other. I do love that Camilleri brings up events and people from the past in every story though. ♥

...the poor Croatians! ;_;

Aaaah, wiki! Why I didn't think of this before! *headdesk*

Hmm, that explains why I can't fit in "La peur de Montalbano" anywhere in the series, lol. Short stories!

BAHAHAHAHA.
YOU WILL LIKE.
...I HOPE?

LOL, the Euros always confuse and astound me. I get all excited before they start but half-way I wonder WTF.

WTF is the general feeling right now. A happy, pleasantly surprised (sometimes) WTF, but still a WTF nonetheless...

Querida! Que tragedia... Me gustaban tanto Croatia. :(
I think my brain is going to shut off from the level of WTF-ness the Euros are feeding it.
